Accommodation of HIC at University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield

If you hope to live on campus, HIC offers places in the University of Hertfordshire's halls of residence. These are low-rise, modern, buildings on both the College Lane and De Havilland campuses. Alternatively, HIC can help to arrange off-campus accommodation for you through its preferred service providers. This accommodation consists of modern apartments and townhouses, ideally located within a short walking distance of either campus.

On-Campus Accommodation

These rooms are usually only available for stays of one semester (16 weeks). In this accommodation you will have your own room containing a single bed, desk, cupboard and washstand. Students may either share bathroom facilities or have their own en-suite facilities. All halls of residence have a large shared self-catering kitchen and free broadband internet access.

If you would like to continue staying in halls of residence for longer than one semester, please be aware that availability is subject to demand. Many students find that one semester living in halls of residence is long enough to make friends and adjust to local life, and they would like to experience life off campus.

Off-Campus Accommodation

HIC provides a referral service to a preferred accommodation provider for all students (new and continuing) who would like to live off campus. The service ensures that HIC students are able to find modern, high-quality, privately rented accommodation near the College Lane campus or within the new residential development next to the de Havilland campus. The service involves support and assistance from the property manager, who is available 24 hours a day in case of emergencies. The property manager is also responsible for maintenance, repair work and housing inspections.
